Lucas Oil Speedway plays host to B-Mod Clash of Champions III this weekend
The final oval-track action of the season at Lucas Oil Speedway will find a big doubleheader featuring the Lucas Oil MLRA Late Models plus crowning an Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mod Clash of Champions III champion.
The Ozark Golf Cars USRA B-Mod division is the largest of the weekly classes at Lucas Oil Speedway and the B-Mod Clash of Champions was started in 2018 to give those drivers an opportunity to be in the spotlight with a high-paying special event.
Lucas Oil Speedway track champion Kris Jackson won last year’s Clash of Champions II after the inaugural event was rained out. The reigning USRA B-Mod national champion enters this weekend locked in a tight battle for the national championship as he’s just 12 points behind Jim Chisholm of Osage, Iowa.
Dillon McCowan of Urbana is third in USRA national points and Springfield’s J.C. Morton comes into this week No. 7.
Jackson edged out Morton for the Lucas Oil Speedway season championship.
The USRA B-Mods will be running a double set of heat races to determine the alphabet soup lineups leading into Saturday’s main event. On Saturday, the USRA B-Mods will conclude with a 30-lap, $3,000-to-win feature.
Activities begin on Thursday with an open practice from 5-8 p.m. Grandstand admission is free with pit passes $25. There will be limited concessions on the pit side and music in the tech building following practice.
